“Hatchlings” is the little engine that just keeps going and going.
Catharine Jones is perfectly fine with it.
The New Mexico-based filmmaker is surprised by all the places the sci-fi/horror short film has gone.

The film won best horror short at Peephole Film Festival in Guadalajara, Mexico. It premiered at the Albuquerque Film & Music Experience and screened at Boca do Infernos’s Film Festival in São Paulo, Brazil.
Right before the pandemic crippled the United States, the film had its time to shine at the Durango Independent Film Festival in Durango, Colorado.
